[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 382246, member: 6198"] hi, from experience they get worse each year and the daughters seem to catch on to this later in their life as well. Just a tip, I did my first prolapse last year with my father in laws guidance. I'm the type to do and learn, he's the type to show and learn (he does it). With this being our cow and not his i wanted the experience cause he won't always be there. So the tips, Predef or such to help reduce the swelling so she won't try and push it out. Clean the prolapse with water and iodine solution. Coat in icing sugar...you read right...icing sugar. It draws some of the moisture to help put it back in. Remember to wear gloves. then slowly push it in and continue to put your arm inside gentley (like unrolling an bunched up sock). Hold that positionfor a while. Cause she will push it back out. It's good to have a guy to push her back down to stop the pushing. And wait for a bit, you'll know how long. Sew her up. We've done the criss cross and the purse string method. both work well. Remember to watch real close so you can cut the strings before she calves. Good luck and sell at weaning time. [/QUOTE]
